(11,614 posts)cold in the 50's. I'm from KCMO and we have cold winters and I love cold weather. I run hot and know how to dress for it but that's back home - when I visit. I've also been in Minnesota, during winter, a few times when I was in my teens, once when it was 40 below. That was insane.
However, I've lived in SoCal for 35 years and I do find I have to put on a long sleeved shirt around 65 degrees or below if I'm idle (working from home, watching a movie, etc). 50's are definitely chilly and can feel downright cold especially at night.... but a couple of blankets and warm PJ's are good for me. I can only imagine how cold it is for people who don't run hot. The mountain areas and the cities closer to them tend to get more intense weather, thunderstorms and wind, which exacerbates the cold.
The only place I cannot beat the cold has been at the beach at night. That ocean air is penetrating.
